    You've probably all seen this before, but guess the Christmas

    I have no idea what that Christmas song could be! Never seen that before.

    BIG thanks to Crystal (crisann)!!! Got my card! :) Merry Christmas and happy new year to you as well.

    My cards are on the way. Thanks Kym for the great job you did here! You must have had your hands full! Looks like everyone is enjoying this. :) Dawn

    I received the most beautiful X-Mas card from Thinking_Stomach (Christina). She included Fish Peppers and Buttercup Type Squash. I cannot wait to plant these in my yard. Thank You Christina.

    I am guessing:

    1st game = 1880
    2nd game = 100
    3rd game = 143

    Have a great day everyone.

    1/2 of my cards are going out today. I have to work on the rest tonight. It is taking me way longer than I thought.

    Well Kym,
    I had hoped you would have gotten a guess in for the Hangman BUT ilovefarac got it right.
    It is Oh Come All Ye Faithful...
    You are goning to have to think of some to make them REALLY difficult. I thought that one wouldn't be too easy BUT this IS a VERY smart group of folks!

    Kym ASKED US NOT TO POST THE NUMBER OF CARDS WE ARE MAILING OUT, PLEASE PLEASE HONOR HER REQUEST, it is for the game totals she posted! Your cooperation is GREATLY appreciated, THANK YOU AND HAVE A GREAT DAY!

    Sorry Kym, trying to get your point across hehe!

    You all are getting some great seeds, and cards !! I cant wait to hear what everyone receives today. My cards will be the last to be sent out, I am working on them, in the middle of all the record keeping..LOL

    I made my dad hurry to the mailbox today...I recd a nice card from Sueirish, with two kinds of sunflowers, I want to do a sunflower garden this spring, cant wait to see them growing ! thanks Sue ! ( and the best thing is you will get to see them too !) Also, Santa Crisann sent me evening primrose, I have wanted this for a long time, thanks so much ! Winter sowing is going to be awesome !

    Then I recd a special package from Msmcyver...which I have known for a long time, and she was just too sweet..she sent me a real pretty box filled with gifts for my daughter, which I will save for Christmas, it is sitting under our tree...the first gift of our season. Bernie thanks sooo much !

    I REALLY DONT KNOW HOW TO THANK YOU ALL FOR MAKING THIS A REALLY SPECIAL HOLIDAY FOR ME...I was given a second chance at life 3 years ago, and I truly feel blessed to know each of you, and to have been able to bring some Christmas spirit to you all.

    On the first day of Christmas gardenweb gave me 4 PACKS OF SEEDS!!! LOL

    I received some bronze fennel seeds, blue fortune agastache, and several other things. I can't remember who sent it, but I promise that when I get home tonight I will post.

    Once again, thank you and thank you Kym for hosting this event.

    Okay, I feel dumb as a bag of hammers, because I haven't been able to solve any of the hangmen, LOL!

    But that's okay, because I scored BIG today!!! I received two cards today, one from Crystal (crisann), and one from Nancy (nuthatch MO). Thank you both for your kindness.

    On top of all of that, I also received an order from Pinetree Garden Seeds, which had the coveted Rudbeckia 'Cherry Brandy' in it! Woohoo!!!

    Makes me want to sing a carol!

    Thank you booberry85 for the wonderful fabric and the seeds: pansy, cantaloupe, tomatoes, Navajo melon, and spinless okra. Will plant those beautiful pansy seeds today!! Thank you for helping me have a wonderful Christmas. :-) All my big quilts have dark green in them so the fabric is perfect.

    And yes chemocurl it has been a while since I was on the Test Forum so I did have to peak at my notes to make things red. :-)

    Pulled all the Christmas decorations out today. GFETE

    Best to you and many thanks,

    I have been trying so hard not to check the mail every five minutes today! I just checked it and was so sad not to see any yellow envelopes, but then I noticed a little white one, from Lois, with Japanese Anemones! I have wanted these for a long time, I am so excited to grow them. Thank you Lois!
